A good Lense for sport is a 70-20mm 2.8!!!!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The answer above had a typo. They Meant a 70 -200 f 2.8 lens. The blurry background is can be achieved with the athlete in focus at f2.8 or keeping everything in focus by changing the Aperture to F8 or higher. You must shoot in manual mode to accomplish this, there are many YouTube videos that teach this. Jared Polin’s channel is excellent for teaching this. Good luck.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I am far from a professional photographer, however I will share what I do know with you. This lens is better suited as a potrait lens with its fixed focal lenght. And you are paying a premium for the f/1.2 aperature. It is this large aperature that produces the blurry backgrounds or bokeh. I would recommend the Canon RF70-200MM f/2.8 as a first lens in your lens bag for capturing sports action. A zoom lens is so much more versatile in trying to catch sports action as it can be your feet in getting in close to the action. This lens would have your 85mm focal length covered and give you so much more. And, with the f/2.8 aperature the lens can double as a portrait lens where the bokeh is often desirable. And remember that the blurriness is a function of your shutter speed and aperature. An alternative lens and somewhat less expensive lens would be the 70-200 f/4. It would give you the same focal range and be lighter, smaller and less expensive!
I would recommend:
